It's called Wikipedia.

I would have had to cheat also. I knew Witch Hunt, but I thought Vapor Trails was one of the others for some odd reason.

What was the name of the secret society that assassinated Archduke Franz Ferdinand?

Young Bosnia.

What are the names of the French islands located off the coast of Newfoundland?

Huh. The answer was actually supposed to be the Black Hand, but apparently they were linked. Learn something new everyday.

Am I missing the point here, but can't we just cheat and google the answer if we don't know it? Or are we trusting that everybody doesn't cheat and uses their brain?

BTW I can't think of the name of those islands, but what I do remember is that one of the classic Basil Rathbone Sherlock Holmes films of the 1940s took place on one of those French islands, or in fact it could've been the mainland:)

As in just about everything on the net, US, you can cheat. If you want to. But I'd hope people don't as that spoils the fun. Either way I don't really care, because the point of the thread is to keep the questions flying, and if someone can only get the answer by cheating, well all I can say is I'm not Jeremy Paxman, so cheat away.

Personally though, if I don't know it I won't look it up. I like my answers to be honest and from my own knowledge.

That said, I don't know those islands --- not great with geography.

I pretty good on geography, but who's going to remember some frozen islands off the coast Canada.

I can't remember the 2nd part but it starts with St Pierre. It escapes me. Damn you BD.
